Elevated circulating VEGF levels are believed to play a role in type 2 diabetes (T2D) microvascular complications, especially diabetic retinopathy. Recently, a genome-wide association study identified two common single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs; rs6921438 and rs10738760) explaining nearly half of the variance in circulating VEGF levels. Considering the putative contribution of VEGF to T2D and its complications, we aimed to assess the effect of these VEGF-related SNPs on the risk of T2D, nephropathy and retinopathy, as well as on variation in related traits.SNPs were genotyped in several case-control studies: French and Danish T2D studies (N(cases)¿=¿6,920-N(controls)¿=¿3,875 and N(cases)¿=¿3,561-N(controls)¿=¿2,623; respectively), two French studies one for diabetic nephropathy (N(cases)¿=¿1,242-N(controls)¿=¿860) and the other for diabetic retinopathy (N(cases)¿=¿1,336-N(controls)¿=¿1,231).
